A collection of my drawings, with as few puns as possible...
A portrait of Michael Haneke, Austrian film director and persistent beard owner. As far as I can tell. I’ve seen two of his films, The White Ribbon and Funny Games. Though tough going at times, I loved the former, but despised the latter, which I guess that was in many ways the point.
Anyway, Haneke’s most recent film, ‘Amour’ was released last week, and I hope to catch it soon.
Issue 8 of Popshot magazine is out, and I’m in it! Pretty excited about this one, been a real fan of the selection popshot puts out for a while now.
That said, I will not be drawing a ball of yarn again in a hurry… not that I even managed to on this occasion. ‘Twas a slow process for sure. Still, think it was worth it.
To see what I’m on about, you can check out a few sample pages on their site, www.popshotpopshot.com.
‘I was thrown out of college for cheating on the metaphysics exam; I looked into the soul of the boy sitting next to me.’ - Woody Allen.
I love that line… Having one of the most instantly recognisable faces in show business actually made Woody Allen surprisingly difficult to draw. There were definitely points where, like drawing a self portrait, I found myself drawing what I thought he looked like, and not what my reference was telling me. I know this isn’t exactly an artistic revelation, but I noticed it more on this drawing than perhaps on any other.
With Uni hand-in done and dusted, I’m free to do all sorts (in theory). Off to Berlin next week, but for now, this was an image I did for our Norwich Illustration promotional publication. N is for Nest.
Second to last piece, last one on the go, cutting it pretty fine for a monday hand in… No worries eh…
I guess its a self portrait, in so far as its a silhouette of my head and I love drawing trees… Really pleased with this one, although kinda annoyed by the fact that I think the detail snapshot looks better than the final image.
Right, first off, hellooooo new followers. I hope y’all like trees… I’ll try and get on some question responses soon.
For now, here’s a tree… I wasn’t kidding…
Not quite sure what it is (well, its obviously one of those tree pictures you do Rupert…), but this is the start of a piece for the NUCA Illustration auction… More on that soon.
wowsers, a tree/human hybrid amalgam fella? surely not…
coupla scans of sections of the final drawings for my film posters. The top one is Stake Land, and the bottom is Troll Hunter. Hopefully gonna get final scans and subsequent images done tomorrow. Tight schedule.
